Chapter 54: The King's Mansion Holds a Banquet
For the actions of the Su family, Zhao Di has been hiding behind the scenes, planning and controlling the whole situation, so he didn't come to Su Xing at all, he stayed in the Minxing Inn all the time, and all the actions were issued from him, and then the layout and execution were carried out by the people of Shang.
Shang Xun has also been paying attention to Zhao Di's layout, and the day after Zhao Di revealed the answer, he knew that Zhao Di's plan was vicious, of course, he had to admire the ruthlessness and ruthlessness of Zhao Di's methods, this kind of strategy was too vicious, even after he knew the whole plan, he had to keep chilling down his spine, and at the same time branded Zhao Di as a poisoner in his heart.
Of course, after knowing all of Zhao Di's plans, Shang knew that Zhao Di's plan would be successful, so he also began to face up to the cooperation between himself and Zhao Di, a poisoner who can turn his hands into clouds and rain with his hands, this kind of person must not be underestimated, so after experiencing the shock of the first few days, Shang Di's heart began to become excited, thinking that Zhao Di, if he can become a partner of cooperation, it is definitely a rare help, such a talent must be seized, and since Zhao Di said that he can help himself ascend to that throne, then the extravagant hope that Shang Di should not have before in his heart has seen Zhao Di's awesomeness, but it became more and more intense.
After Zhao Di's layout was nearing the end, Shang Xun invited Zhao Di again, but this time the location was changed to the palace, and he personally greeted Zhao Di at the second gate, and Zhao Di became very enthusiastic when he met him, and the two walked arm in arm as if they had been friends for many years.
For the enthusiasm of business, Zhao Di is naturally warm.
This time, the standard of the banquet was even higher, and some of Shang Xun's henchmen and subordinates were involved, obviously Shang Xun has not been idle in the past few days, and his imminent ambition has been completely stimulated, so he has also conducted some tentative research with his henchmen.
The people at the banquet are all trusted confidants and loyal ministers of Shang, so Shang has nothing to hide from these people, after three rounds of drinking, Shang Xuan said to Zhao Di: "This time, with the help of Brother Di, I finally figured out the evil breath in the heart of this king, even if the matter does not succeed in the end, the friendship between me and Brother Di will definitely not be affected in any way." This cup of this king respects you, thank you brother Di for avenging me this time. After speaking, he drank all the wine in the wine cup in his hand.
Of course, Zhao Di followed with a drink, and said, "King Xuan is polite, all this is what Di should do." ”
Shang Xun said: "Brother Di, what you talked to Brother Wei about last time, Brother Wei has already summed it up with the brothers below, and in the end I still feel that this matter is too difficult, I don't know what good opinions Brother Di has?"
Obviously, Shang Xun couldn't convince his subordinates by himself, and hoped that Zhao Di would be able to persuade his subordinates to follow him.
Zhao Di knew in his heart when he heard this, it seemed that Shang Xun was completely provoked by his own ambition that had been hidden for many years, but at the beginning of the matter, he was given a cold reception in front of his loyal subordinates, which made him cringe a little.
Zhao Di smiled slightly and said, "Since the prince wants to hear it, then Di is naturally willing to say it." First of all, the prince and the brothers feel that it is difficult, which thing in this world is not difficult, not to mention the things that pierce the sky, just say that the prince was humiliated in front of the Su Wangfu, and these things are not the same in your opinion, revenge is as difficult as climbing to the sky. So in the final analysis, it is still man-made, everything depends on whether everyone is really intentional or false, people who really have the heart to do things, what they see is not difficulties, but to see through the essence of things, and then to solve things, everything is as simple as that, that's all. ”
Hearing Zhao Di say it so easily, the people in the business below obviously disagreed, and one of them arched his hand and said: "Lord Di said things too easily, let's not talk about anything else, just one point, this matter of national weapons is an unsolvable problem." ”
Zhao Di smiled and nodded, and said, "Well, it seems that everyone still has a heart, so I'll talk about this national weapon." The national weapon seems to be powerful and incomprehensible, but in Di's opinion, it is the most useless and simple thing, and the operation of a country does not depend on a dead thing like a national weapon, but countless people are maintaining it. If you take a dead object too seriously, you will only find out in the end that it is a paper tiger, which will be broken when you poke it. ”
The man snorted coldly: "Naughty boy's joke, hehe, I think you are the real joke, how terrible is the fortune of a country, have you ever felt it?"
Zhao Di didn't feel sorry for this person's provocation at all, still smiled lightly, and said, "No, I really feel it." It seems that the prince did not tell you the true identity of Di, Di is now a sinner in the Great Song Dynasty, and he just felt the misfortune of the national fortune not long ago, and the taste is really uncomfortable, but Di still did not give in, and the belief in his heart has never changed. ”
Shang Di's investigation of Zhao Di was carried out in secret, and Zhao Di's identity as a sinner was only known to Shang Di, after all, if Zhao Di's identity as a sinner was exposed, I am afraid that the people below him would not agree to him cooperating with Zhao Di, after all, everyone could see at a glance that Zhao Di was completely using Shang Di.
However, Zhao Di didn't have any scruples, and directly and frankly stated his identity, not to mention Shang Di's subordinates, even Shang Di himself was a little surprised, and at the same time felt that Zhao Di was too reckless to do this.
The person who provoked Zhao Di was full of astonishment, and pointed at Zhao Di for a while before he said, "You...... You, you are actually a sinner?" Then he got up and came to the center of the hall and bowed down, and said to Shang Xun: "Lord, this matter must not be, this person has ill intentions, and his subordinates will never agree to the prince cooperating with this person, please don't fall for the wrong thing that this villain should do." ”
The others also got up and followed this person to bow down, and they all dissuaded Shang Xun from continuing to associate with Zhao Di.
Zhao Di had expected this, although he was the one who was blamed by everyone, but he sat in his seat with a faint smile, looking at these merchants' subordinates with sad and angry faces, as if this matter had nothing to do with him at all, it was completely a style of watching a play, sipping the wine cup on the case, and drinking and eating meat at leisure, as comfortable as he wanted.
On the contrary, Shang Xuan, who was sitting on the throne of the high hall, seemed a little uneasy, after all, these subordinates were his henchmen, and in the face of their collective opposition, the conceited Shang Xuan had to appease them, and said: "Brothers, please get up first, aren't you discussing this matter with you, and I didn't say that I would definitely do this!"
Although Shang Xuan is a prince, if everyone under his command opposes it, it will be difficult for him to succeed alone, and it is precisely because of this that after testing everyone's attitude, he feels in a dilemma, so he wants to persuade these people through Zhao Di.
Who would have thought that Zhao Di not only did not work, but took the initiative to reveal his identity, which aroused such a big reaction from everyone.
